According to a 2015 Gallup Poll, less than 4% of the population is gay (or LGBT).
That being said, why do you think that most movies and TV shows now feel it is important to include a gay and/or LGBT element in their programming?
PRINCETON, N.J. -- The American public estimates on average that 23% of Americans are gay or lesbian, little changed from Americans' 25% estimate in 2011, and only slightly higher than separate 2002 estimates of the gay and lesbian population. These estimates are many times higher than the 3.8% of the adult population who identified themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender in Gallup Daily tracking in the first four months of this year.
